Overview: Combination function rooms

The information in this topic applies to version R41 and higher. If you use version R40 and lower, refer to Overview: Combination function rooms

Two types of function rooms exist:

• Indivisible - The room cannot be divided into other rooms.
• Combination - The room consists of two or more indivisible rooms.

For example, the Ballroom is a combination of Salon A, Salon B, and Salon C. Each of the salons can be sold on its own, or together in different combinations: Salon AB, Salon BC, or the Ballroom.

When a combination function room is blocked, all the indivisible rooms it includes are also blocked. The Function Diary displays the indivisible rooms in a lighter shade of the event status color to indicate that the rooms are also unavailable. In addition, when an indivisible room is blocked for an event, the entire combination room displays as unavailable during that time.

You can build a combination room with the Combination Rooms section of the Function Room page. All indivisible rooms need to be created before you add them to a combination room.

When you add an indivisible room to a combination room, a record is created in the Part of Combo room section of the Function Room page. You can use this section to see which combination rooms include that indivisible room.

After saved, the Function Room Type field cannot be changed. If you save with the wrong type, or a room is remodeled and the type needs to change, make the existing room inactive and create a new room.
